The Oak Tree Practice Omdömen 88

I started having sessions at The Oak Tree Practice after falling out of my routine and feeling more low and anxious. I felt that I was matched up quickly, and perfectly with Dr Jonathan O’Keeffe. I felt truly comfortable in our sessions and able to share difficult but important emotions. Jonathan introduced me to different tools and techniques to try after each session which I think I will use for the rest of my life when I encounter difficulties. He was always flexible and prepared, and so I felt supported no matter what I was bringing to the session.

I would recommend him to anyone who needs help with managing anxiety and to those who would like to learn about being more compassionate to themselves.

I cannot fault the practice, thank you for everything!

I spent a year and a half getting over an intense fear of flying phobia. I worked with Erlend Slettevold who I recommend highly. He helped me not only overcome my fear of flying but helped me grow immensely as a person.

The practice itself is also great. They reply quickly and help with any issues.

5/5, 10/10, gold stars all round.

I have been seeing Ilan for just over two years now and my life looks completely different now to before our sessions. This has been my first experience of therapy and it has been nothing but positive. Ilan creates a very safe environment and I immediately felt as ease with him. He has been very supportive of my mental health and well-being and gave me techniques to manage anxiety which has made a visible difference to my life. Now, when anything happens I am much better equipped to deal with it in a balanced way and with perspective. When I was having issues in my relationship, Ilan was very flexible with doing some joint sessions which was so helpful and amazing that I could rely on him during difficult times of need. I am now in a place where I don't 'need' Ilan as much but he is someone I know I will always be able to reach out to if I need support in the future. It is so nice (and such a relief) to now go through life feeling happy and not anxious and whilst that hasn't been 100% down to Ilan, he has had a significant part to play and I can't recommend or thank him enough.

Dr Ilan did a great job of in-person sessions, working through my anxiety symptoms with me over many sessions. This was my first experience with therapy and I found it an enjoyable experience, he went out of his way to make me feel comfortable, and came up with a straightforward way to address my issues. I'd highly recommend his practice

I have had the privilege to experience the therapeutic services of Dr Ilan Ben-Zion at The Oak Tree Practice for almost 5 years now.

The therapists are truly exceptional, Dr Ilan has an incredible ability to help one overcome the most challenging obstacles life can throw your way. Empathy and professionalism radiates throughout the practice from the moment you walk through the door and creates an atmosphere that sets a safe, comforting tone ahead of your therapeutic journey. The team exhibit a genuine passion for their work. Their expertise and commitment to ongoing professional development are evident. Scheduling appointments is a seamless process, and any inquiries or concerns are promptly addressed.

I came to the practice in need of help with mixed depression and anxiety and I feel I have developed so many skills that have helped me manage my mental health around all aspects of my life be-it relationships, competitive sport, university or work. I was later diagnosed with a long term neurological illness which is one of Dr Ilan’s many areas of expertise and I could not have had a better experience in receiving the help I needed with the mental challenges in dealing with the situation.

I cannot recommend The Oak Tree practice highly enough. Five stars is an understatement – the combination of expert therapists, a warm and inviting atmosphere, and a commitment to individualised care all make this practice stand out. The team deserves the highest praise for their dedication to fostering mental health and emotional well-being.

Our experience at the Oaktree practice was a delight (considering the challenging circumstances). Dr Ilan probably saved our child’s life and in doing so, helped us to manage his severe generalised anxiety with more confidence. His humour and very pleasant demeanour, was a breath of fresh air to all our family and we can’t thank him and his team enough.
Highly recommend!

I saw Dr Ilan for about a year to help me through some mild to severe anxiety I was experiencing, in relation to health, work, travel, and general overthinking about the future/events.

He was a wonderful person to talk things through with, providing the space and tools I needed to get through difficult moments, as well as building me up to the point where I no longer 'needed' to see him or go to therapy.

The door is always open in case I want a future session, but I now feel capable and confident to not only think and talk through my anxiety but also tackle it when necessary.

I would highly recommend Ilan (and have done to a friend or two!).

I saw Ilan after suffering panic attacks related to both my professional and personal life, leading to a breakdown. This was off the back of ignoring similar symptoms the previous year. Seeing him really changed my life and I don’t know how I would have gotten through this period of my life without him. He not only gave me a safe place to talk but offered meaningful advice and strategies to help me thrive and grow in to a better human. I can’t recommend him highly highly enough.

I saw Ilan on a regular basis over the last couple of years. Having seen a number of therapists over the years during stressful periods in my life, I found Ilan to be the most helpful to support me through several transitions in my personal and professional life. He is able to provide support and empathy while still ensuring that I consider practical long term changes to improve my health. It is clear that he is also great with children and young adults. If any of my children were to require support in the future, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend The Oak Tree Practice.

The Oak Tree Practice and Dr Ilan Ben-Zion, have been extremely helpful throughout my therapy sessions. Helping to identify some of the root problems to my anxiety and building strong coping mechanisms which have helped me reduce my anxiety levels. I would highly recommend Dr. Ilan Ben-Zion if you're experiencing severe anxiety or going through a challenging time in life.

Illan and his team are excellent in what they do. They’re welcoming, accommodating and easy to talk to. I would highly recommend.

My experience with therapy at the Oak Tree Practice has been incredibly transformative. The support and guidance I've received have proven instrumental in not only managing but understanding the root causes of my mental conditions, specifically anxiety and insomnia. The sessions delve deep into understanding past experiences, connecting them to present challenges. What stands out is the practice's commitment to not only identifying issues but also equipping me with practical strategies. From mindfulness techniques to personalized interventions, each session empowers me with tools for daily life. The Oak Tree Practice isn't just addressing my immediate concerns; it's laying the groundwork for long-term mental well-being.

Everybody I have worked with operates at the highest standards of professionalism combined with a deep capacity for empathy and humanity. Essential for anyone seeking help at the Oak Tree Practice, is the fact that they are very thoughtful in assessing whether they can help you before entering a commitment.

Ilan and team provide a fantastic service that has helped me on more than one occasion. They are pragmatic, responsive and consistently go over and above to provide support. Even when not actively using the service, knowing they exist is genuinely helpful. 5 stars without doubt

Dr Erlend Slettevold was great, empathetic, helpful and creative in his ability to guide me through a very rough patch. His sessions were insightful and supportive - highly recommended.

Had a really good service from Ilan, he provided a space where I was incredibly comfortable and spoke about things I hadn’t discussed before. The whole treatment plan was incredibly useful and has helped me to deal with anger and stress a lot better. I can’t recommend Ilan enough, a very professional friendly chap.

After covid I felt I had lost a lot of confidence in social situations and sought help. I was referred to the Oak Tree Practice and immediately felt at ease. After an initial assessment I was connected with Dr Erin Vignali. Erin made me feel incredibly comfortable and I was able to open up immediately which helped uncover any issues I was having. Within a few sessions, I could already see an improvement as I could now begin to understand what was happening when I became anxious. Erin & The Oak Tree Practice really helped me practically build my confidence back up and gave me the tools to cope and deal with issues when they arise in a way which was personal to my circumstances. I highly recommend The Oak Tree Practice and Erin and thank them for helping me.

I found the Oak Tree Practice by chance and I am so pleased that I did. My son has been seeing Ilan for a while now and the change in him has been so wonderful to see. He has helped him in so many ways and my son says that Ilan has been the best person he has ever talked to to help him understand himself and move forward in a really positive way. As a mum, I just wanted my son to see someone who was professional, warm and positive and pro-active in his approach - Ilan is all of these things and we are really happy to recommend him to anybody (we have already passed his number round to friends).

Ilan was fantastic , couldn’t speak more highly enough or recommend someone more than him.

I don’t believe it’s an exaggeration to say that Dr Ilan changed my life. I initially went to see him with depression and anxiety so crippling that I couldn’t live a normal life. Two years later and I have never been happier. It is like the issues I had in the past never existed. Going to see him every week actually became a pleasure, he is friendly, personable and has a great sense of humor! He definitely met me at the point I was at and always made me feel much more positive afterward. Plus his love for reading in order to supplement his knowledge and techniques is truly inspiring. I would recommend him to anyone who is currently struggling with their mental health :)
